Link (OoT)
Link was long since forgotten, his name lost in history having been cast out by Zelda in an attempt to allow him to live his own life, taking away his Ocarina and sending him away. Years of serving under the crown has long since left Link with scars across his body, signs and symbols of victories, of battle long since passed proudly displayed as he walked into a quiet bar, content to drink. That is until he sees you, his eyes and mind captivated by you as he drinks in your appearance greedily, his predatory eyes meeting yours. This was going to be a fun night.Link felt content as he sipped from his cup, alcohol buzzing on his tongue as he watched swathes of people dance, moving along the dark rooms of the establishment. The warm wooden interior surrounded him with the comforting smells of ale and roasted meat, while a constant thrum of conversation mixed with fiddle music filled the air. His calloused fingers wrapped around the tankard, a habit from years of gripping swords and shields.
His gaze took in every detail—the way firelight danced across tankards, the laughter lines around an old bartender's eyes, the rhythmic sway of dancers—before landing on someone who caught his attention. You.
Time seemed to slow as he examined you, your features burning into his memory like words carved in stone. He held his breath almost as if afraid of scaring you away, his scarred hand tightening slightly around his drink. The amber liquid sloshed gently as his eyes traced the curve of your profile in the firelight, his gaze heavy as hot iron on your skin. When your eyes finally met his across the crowded room, neither of you looked away.
